I feel like all Big 5 stores are underrated and they still have the same layout from the 90's! I was on my way to a family function at a park in Cerritos when I got a call from my sister that she needed a kite and some games for the kids to play since there weren't any. She asked if I could stop by Target on the way to the park but I said, "No! We're boycotting Target!" and I went with the next best thing, BIg 5. I called to check and see if they sold kites and the guy that answered said, "Tights? Yeah we sell tights. Like workout..." and I interjected and yelled, "KITES not TIGHTS! KITES!! The thing that you fly at the park!" and he said, yes they sold kites. I arrived 5 minutes later and was greeted by one of the male employees who asked, "Hi, can we help you find anything?" and I said, "Yes, kites please," and he said, "Oh yeah, tights are right over ..." and I yelled, "KITES!! NOT TIGHTS!" He laughed and directed me to the kites. I ended up buying some Velcro mitt with a tennis ball and a cool pink frisbee as well. I think I paid around $20. No line, not crowded, fully stocked, tons of parking and the best employees! read more
